Re: [CFENGINE] sysadm strangeness

[Glen Trudgett]

Hi all,

We are currently setting up our cfengine software. We seem to be having some strange behaviour
with regards to the sysadm directive. We have found that the mailing address prepends "cfengine@"
onto the front of a define mail address. The output is as follows, with the anomaly in bold red.
Have we made a fundamental mistake somewhere? We have looked closely at examples and checked the reference
guide, but to no avail. Is this a bug?

Glen
